Ostrich leather is chosen by watch collectors for comfort, durability, and long-term wearability, not just for its exotic look. Its cross-weave fiber structure resists cracking and hole stretching, allowing it to outlast calfskin by 3–5×.
Natural pores from feather follicles provide excellent breathability and thermoregulation, making it comfortable for extended daily wear. Metal-free tanning improves skin compatibility, reducing irritation during constant wrist contact.

In short: a rational, informed material choice for serious watch enthusiasts.
